Chapter 137: The Battle of the Duke of Wei on the High Sea (Part II)

A small globe with a few flies hitting the wall.

Buzzing, a few poignant, a few sobbing.

Ants boast of a big country, and it is easy for grasshoppers to shake trees.

On the way north, Wei Gonggong made a great deal of poetry and wrote a song "Man Jianghong", but there was only the first part, not the next part. Among the senior generals of the Imperial Army in the north this time were Ichiro Sanada, Wing Commander of the First Infantry Wing, Li Yanzhao, Wing Commander of the Sixth Infantry Wing, and Li Shauji, Commander of the Artillery Wing.

The father-in-law did not order the staff to accompany him, mainly because this time the father-in-law wanted to show himself.

According to the Fuzhou side, the Japanese finally appeared in the Dongsha area along the coast of Changle, where the sea area is about 200 miles away from Zhongzuo, and it is neither long nor short.

The next day, the navy released several clippers to reconnoiter and guard ahead, but nothing was found on the sea that day, except for a few fishing boats.

On the third day, it was not found, and according to the prior intelligence analysis and search situation, Wei Gonggong concluded that the Japanese were still in the Dongsha area, so he ordered the fleet to speed up.

Before dawn the next day, the clipper ship ahead came to report the discovery of the widows.

Wei Gonggong was in good spirits, swept away the tiredness of the past two days, and ordered the whole army to quickly surround the Japanese invaders.

As three smoke bombs flew into the air, the navy's 60 warships immediately divided into three teams and outflanked them in a semi-circle battle from the front, left, and right directions.

As the distance shortened, Gonggong Wei saw a reef from the clairvoyant, and two of the reefs were relatively large and could be called small islands. One island was empty, while the other was filled with a dozen sheds. There were three boats running aground on the side of the island, judging from the size of the boats, Gonggong Wei felt that he had come to the right place, and there were only a few hundred people at most. For no other reason, those three boats couldn't carry too many people.

"The number of Japanese pirates is not large, but we should not take it lightly, our family intends to besiege it on three roads, attack it with warships and artillery, and first destroy the shacks of the Japanese pirates, so that they have no shelter."

Gonggong Wei still has basic military qualities, although the number of surrounded pirates is not large, but he still shows twelve points of strength to deal with it.

At that moment, Sanada Ichiro's 1st Infantry Wing was ordered to cooperate with the naval siege from the front and left directions, and Li Yanzhao led his father-in-law's personal guard battalion to besiege from the right side.

Sanada Ichiro and Li Yanzhao immediately received the order, and both of them couldn't wait to fight the Japanese invaders. Especially since the latter was transferred to the post of general with troops from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, this was the first time he actually commanded an operation.

"What is Yan Zhao looking at?"

When Li Yanzhao was waiting for the Clipper to pick him up, his father-in-law found that he was concentrating on something.

Hearing his father-in-law's question, Li Yanzhao hurriedly put down the booklet in his hand, and then said a little embarrassed: "Back to my father-in-law, the last general is reading your anthology." ”

Gonggong Wei was very surprised when he heard this: "The war is coming, what do you think of our anthology?" "After saying this, my father-in-law's own face is a little weird, these are only a few widows, you are always called a big war.

"The collection of official documents contains all kinds of truths in the world, whether political or military, and it is not within the scope of the official collection... Don't hide it from your father-in-law, Yan Zhao has to be carried by you in the army, he has never had actual command experience before, this is the first time Yan Zhao has led the troops to fight alone, so he is even apprehensive in his heart, lest he will spoil his father-in-law's affairs because of Yan Zhao's incompetence, so Yan Zhao is also temporarily cramming, wanting to gain spirit and strength from the Gonggong Collection, so as to fight to the death with that widow! ”

After speaking, Li Yanzhao raised the "Anthology of Wei Gongliangchen" in his hand, waved it vigorously on his chest, and shouted from the bottom of his heart: "Loyalty!" ”

"Loyalty!"

My father-in-law's heart is full of warmth, Comrade Yan Zhao, it's not in vain that our family bothered to cultivate you... Wait, what? You haven't led soldiers before?

My father-in-law had a bad feeling, but I thought that if I hadn't led soldiers before, who would have been born to lead soldiers to fight. Young people, as long as they know how to learn to strengthen the country, it is good. It doesn't matter whether the fight is good or not, the important thing is whether Comrade Yan Zhao can give full play to the fighting thinking of the Gonggong Collection in this battle.

Thoughts are very important.

There is nothing in the world more powerful than thought.

The Japanese on the island had also found that they were surrounded by a large number of Ming Dynasty warships, and the Japanese people who led the team were frightened, but they couldn't run even if they wanted to run when the ships ran aground.

"The big ship of the Ming Dynasty can't come, don't be afraid, wait for their small boat to come, we will rush up and grab the boat together!"

The reef-filled White Dog Ao certainly made it difficult for the Japanese soldiers to move, but it also limited the combined fleet. Whether you can break through or not depends on whether you can grab the boat of the Ming army.

The navy quickly sensed that the terrain was unfavorable for the large ship to deploy, and the chief military officer, Wang Dali, sent a speedboat to report the situation to the Duke of Wei, intending to surround it from a distance, and wait for the tide to rise before approaching.

Wei Gonggong scolded angrily, the tide has risen, and your navy's ship can only lean up, but the damn Japanese ship can also run away!

Wang Dali was so ashamed of being scolded by his father-in-law that he hurriedly ordered all detachments to release small boats to carry army officers and soldiers to the island for battle.

"Fire, fire!"

With the urging of Gonggong Wei, the artillery of the navy began to fire at the surrounded Japanese soldiers. However, the effect is not good, because the terrain is really complicated, and from a distance, it looks like the island occupied by the Japanese is empty, but when the cannon is really fired, most of the cannons are missed.

"The navy's red deer are very incompetent, and it still depends on our army at a critical time!"

Ichiro Sanada smiled sinister and drew his command knife. On the Fu boat where he was staying, more than 300 imperial officers and soldiers were climbing down from the fishing nets on the side of the boat, and at the bottom were more than a dozen fast boats that could accommodate 20 people at a time.

The First Infantry Wing is the main force in the main force of the Guards Division, all of them are fully equipped, and the weapons are all flintlock fast guns produced by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, it can be said that the First Infantry Wing is the model of the imperial army created by Wei Gonggong himself, and has the reputation of "the flower of the imperial army" within the imperial army.

Most of the officers and men of the wing have been tested in actual combat, and the first group to disembark to launch a landing operation on the island was the No. 1 Brigade, which was awarded the banner of "Kwandian Hero" by the base camp, and the leader of the group was Shen Shikui, who had made great achievements in the Kwandian sweeping operation and the Korean special operation.

"Shen Sang, whether the first team can use me in the first battle, and I will win with me, it all depends on you to drop the first team!" Sanada Ichiro patted Shen Shikui's shoulder heavily.

"Captain of the wing, please rest assured, I, Shen Shikui, will definitely not embarrass you!"

Shen Shikui, who spoke with a strong Shandong accent, turned around and spat on the island occupied by the Japanese, his eyes full of desire for victory and military exploits.

When he set out from the Special Administrative Region and headed south, Shen Shikui had already made a report to the wing and brigade headquarters, hoping that he would be able to bring his wife and daughter who had left in Liaodong to the Special Administrative Region after the end of the expedition.

This report was sent to Father-in-law Wei after being approved layer by layer, and Shen Shikui especially remembered the approval of Father-in-law Wei on the report: "Accurate, the base camp will arrange for the families of Liaodong soldiers to go south." In addition, after Shen Shikui's wife and daughter arrived in the Special Economic Zone, our family personally met with them. ”

What a great honor it is for his wife and daughter to be personally received by Father-in-law Wei!

Shen Shikui's excitement can be imagined, and he can only express his reverence for Gonggong Wei with actual performance.

Now, it's time for him Shen Shikui to perform.

In the distance, Gonggong Wei must be watching him!
